TIL! I’ve only ever tried beginner ones and been a bit meh about the appeal.
I used to enjoy the written version in crossword puzzle books before it was called sudoku. I'd put in numbers, and sometimes solve or come close to solving them, but it didn't matter.
That was a long time ago tho.
I probably should just download a game, and do some repetition. It's like multiple choice exams. If you figure out the logic, they're easy to pass.

I think we need to reinstate the law that says the USG is banned from promoting propaganda. (It was repealed during W's admin.)
While the Trump administration has long cultivated a growing cast of conservative creators to spread its messaging online, a White House staffer moonlighting as an anonymous MAGA influencer would blur the already hazy line further, making it nearly impossible to distinguish between official government messaging and what appears to be organic digital support. This lack of disclosure risks undermining public trust, disinformation researchers suggest.

“Some MAGA people are definitely still pissed about how Trump has handled Epstein,” Mike Rothschild, an author who writes about conspiracy theories and extremists, tells WIRED. “But many others have just moved on and think it's all a big Democratic hoax. For a bunch of ‘free thinkers,’ they're the most easily led people you can imagine.”

ok
It wasn't a "state of the union" speech. It was a "need to shore up the MAGA base in advance of the midterms" speech.
The Charlotte Observer previously reported that Brown was born in Charlotte, according to his Facebook page. His mother told The Charlotte Observer he graduated from West Mecklenburg High School. He worked at a local Subway. She also told the newspaper that her son suffered from schizophrenia and said the system failed him. She and her husband tried to get their son mental health treatment but repeatedly were turned away.

I hate sudoku.
Everyone needs a good news story:
A bobcat kitten rescued last year while emaciated and suffering from anemia and mange has been released "back where she belongs in the wild" following months of intensive treatment at the Ramona Wildlife Center, the San Diego Humane Society announced Monday.

I read about 2 chapters of the first book because my grandma gifted it to me (because it was what was popular for girls my age at the time), decided it wasn't for me and moved on. I watched the films ...
I know it's a pop culture phenom, and I thought should be more aware for cultural literacy, but I just couldn't. I couldn't finish the first book. Never watched the movies.
I have also never watched any of The Hunger Games stuff.
Dipping out of pop culture has, overall, been good.

Could be. I'd say it's more similar to Buffy than HP.
Came out about the time Buffy was peaking, and I assumed it was Buffy without the social commentary.
(I didn't get very far into the books, skipped the movies altogether.)
